- all heads
- all tails
- 3 heads 1 tail
- 3 tails and 1 head
- 2h and 2t
i think only 5 but that's just what i can get
===============================================
The above answer is correct if you disregard the order of the outcomes.
If the order of the outcomes matters, then the answer is:
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16
since each toss has two possible outcomes (assuming the coin cannot land on its side) and you repeat the toss four times.

If you flip a coin 2 times how many possible outcomes are there How many combinations?
Four outcomes, three combinations.
What is the probability of getting at least 2 heads in three flips of a fair coin?
In three flips of a fair coin, there are a total of 8 possible outcomes: T, T, T; T, T, H; T, H, T; T, H, H; H, H, H; H, H, T; H, T, H; H, T, T Of the possible outcomes, four of them (half) contain at least two heads, as can be seen by inspection. Note: In flipping a coin, there are two possible outcomes at each flipping event. The number of possible outcomes expands as a function of the number of times the coin is flipped. One flip, two possible outcomes. Two flips, four possible outcomes. Three flips, eight possible outcomes. Four flips, sixteen possible outcomes. It appears that the number of possible outcomes is a power of the number of possible outcomes, which is two. 21 = 2, 22 = 4, 23 = 8, 24 = 16, .... Looks like a pattern developing there. Welcome to this variant of permutations.
What is the outcome if two coins are tossed and one number cube is rolled?
Let's call one coin A and the other B. omes The possible outcomes for the coins are; A heads and B tails, A tails and B heads, A and B heads, A and B tails. That's four outcomes. The possible outcomes for a single die (as in dice) are six since a die has six faces, So four times six is twenty four possible outcomes.
How many possible outcomes if each coin is flipped once?
We use three coins (quarter, nickel, dime) each are flipped only once. We get 8 possible outcomes (or four outcomes as an alternative).
If you toss a coin three times how many possible outcomes are there?
In three tosses there can be four possible outcomes: three heads, three tails, two heads and one tail, and one head and two tails. ^^^That is wrongA coin is tossed N times. There are 2 possibilities when you toss a coin: heads and tails.So the formula is 2^N (thats to the N power)A coin tossed 3 times has 2^3=8 possible outcomes:head head headhead head tailhead tail headtail head headtail tail headhead tail tailtail head tailtail tail tailThere they are!
If you toss a coin four times how many possible outcomes are there?
24 or 16

How many possible outcomes are there if you toss a fair coin four times?
Normally there would considered to be 2⁴ = 16 possible outcomes as each outcome is one of 2 states: Head or Tails. ------------------------- There is an extremely small probability that a normal coin will end up on its edge, which mean there are 3⁴ = 81 possible outcomes. However, this probability is so small that it is ignored and normally only 2 outcomes are considered possible. As the radius to width ratio of the coin changes, the probability of the coin ending up on its edge changes, for some values being so significant that it becomes a real probability that the edge can result, and for some ratios it is almost always the edge that results and the probability of head or tails (ie ends of the cylinder that is the coin) is so small as to be ignored like the edge for a normal sized coin (cylinder).
When a quarter is tossed four times How many times are exactly three tails tossed?
Out of the 16 possible outcomes for a coin tossed four times, 4 of them result in 3 Tails & 1 Head. They are: TTTH, TTHT, THTT, and HTTT.
There is a spinner with three sections on it If you spin it four times how many possible outcomes are there?
You do 3x4!!! 3 options, and four times! Elementry!

this question is really hard!
How many possible outcomes for flipping 2 coins?
Assuming the coins are fair, two-sided coins, and landing on their sides is not an option, there are four possible outcomes if you consider coin a having a head and coin b having a tail being a different instance from coin a being a tail and coin be having a head. Here they are; Coin A | Coin B Heads | Tails Heads | Heads Tails....| Heads Tails....| Tails
What is the probability of flipping a coin four times and getting the same side all four times?
Each flip has two possible outcomes and they are independent events, so there are 24 = 16 possible results. Of these, only 2 (HHHH, TTTT) are the same 4 each time, Thus: probability = 2/16 = 1/8
